Talk:How to win at Google/DC Database

Improvements
I'm curious to see how these figures would stack up now, several months later. There are a lot of these suggested changes that we haven't implemented for various reasons, but we have made significant improvements in a lot of areas. The difficulty seems to be balancing our community's desire for integrity as a database with the need to be more accessible. This ties into a larger ongoing debate we've had in the community for several years between the need to appeal to both newer and older readers without alienating either party. I've personally been working very hard on this issue as new senior administrator since a number of our other respected editors have left the project, and I think we've made great strides. One of the biggest changes I've been making with an eye directed at SEO is to improve all of our disambiguation pages, making them a great starting point on any character with introductory paragraphs that specifically include as many related search terms as possible.
